After race at Navan Sun, 12th Jan, 2014 (1st)

We've been waiting a while for that fella,.

W P Mullins

After race at Roscommon Mon, 9th Jul, 2012 (1st)

He started the year well and won well at the Curragh. He ran ok on his second start although he was very green. I thought he would run well at Limerick but there was no pace there and that didn't suit him. There was a reasonable pace today and he handled the ground and stayed well. He was probably in front a bit soon and wandered around. He might go for the Challenge Stakes at Leopardstown now later in the month.

John M Oxx

After race at Curragh Sun, 22nd Apr, 2012 (1st)

I could have run eight to ten in the race. All of mine ran well. I didn't have him last year. He came to me during the winter and he was still raw. He loves soft ground and he stays well. It's a bit of a pain in the neck trying to find a race for him now as he is not a classic type and he has won his maiden first time out. He will be impeded by both the weather and the program of races. He won't run on ground that is fast.
